Open questions
What is risk?
Can we measure it?
If we understand it, can we manage it better?
"Risk" is an abstract, forward-looking concept and
has different definitions in different disciplines.
However, regardless of its definition, risk is closely
related to uncertainty and is not static.
![Page 3: Acceptable risk for critical facilities subjected to ...€¦ · Novel Indicators for Identifying Critical Infrastructure at Risk from Natural Hazards. The main goal of INFRARISK](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060420/5f1704b61504cb7edc35a682/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Risk and uncertainty in geosciences
In any geotechnical and geological assessment, one must deal with uncertainties, either implicitly or explicitly.
![Page 4: Acceptable risk for critical facilities subjected to ...€¦ · Novel Indicators for Identifying Critical Infrastructure at Risk from Natural Hazards. The main goal of INFRARISK](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060420/5f1704b61504cb7edc35a682/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Quantification of Risk (from an engineer’s viewpoint)
H = Hazard (temporal probability of a threat)
V = Vulnerability ofelement(s) at risk,
(E = Exposure of element(s) at risk)
U = Utility (or value) ofelement(s) at risk
or Risk = f(H, V, (E), U)
To quantify risk, one should quantify hazard, vulnerability, exposure and value of the elements at risk.
Risk = f(Hazard, Consequences)

How much risk is acceptable?
How much risk are we
willing to accept?
Depends on whether the
situation is voluntary or
imposed.

Snow avalanches in Norway:(1500 deaths in past 150 years)
• Before 1950s: most casualties were
people residing in buildings
• After 1950s: most casualties are
skiers, who often trigger the avalanche
themselves. Only 1 - 2 casualties per
year for people inside buildings.

In 2001, HSE proposed a societal risk criterion that said that:
Proposals for revised policies to address societal risk around onshore non-nuclear
major hazard installations (HSE, 2007)
Impact of HSE PADHI policy proposals on LDA & GLA (Capita Symonds, 2007)
“The risk of an accident
causing the death of 50 or
more people in a single event
should be regarded as
intolerable if the frequency is
estimated to be more than
one in five thousand per
